Vascular Ion Channel Research Lab

Our research at the University of Delaware focuses on cardiovascular disease risk factors and how they contribute to endothelial dysfunction.

EXTRA EXTRA📰🚨 Check out our new pub! Here, we detail the effects of inhibiting lipolysis in visceral adipose from obese mice and humans and how it contributes to a restoration in our favorite ion channel, Kir2.1, function! Link attached below.

#APSselect study from @PhysiologicalG finds visceral and subcutaneous fat tissue have differently expressed genes. Findings could inform future #obesity treatments for visceral fat dysfunction. Read more about it: https://t.co/mCAfS3BpQa CC: @fancherlab @UDCHS @CollerHilary

We had a great time presenting our work at the #NERIC conference hosted in Wilmington, DE this year. We all learned a lot from other scientists across the East Coast!
